Percipience is a rare, rather noun. It names the power or quality of noticing and understanding things quickly — a keen kind of awareness. You might find it in older writing or in very careful, formal prose. You will almost never hear it in a shop, a classroom, or a text from a friend. Though actually, most people who want this meaning simply say insight, awareness, or perception. Keep this word for when you are reading; if you use it in speech, you may sound as if you have swallowed a dictionary.
感知力、洞察(書面、罕用;口語多說洞察力)
組成From percipient, itself from Latin percipiens, the past participle of percipere (“to perceive”).
